"as long as they praising the lords name it's fine by me.... the congregations gonna be in for a surprise, come sunday " lmfbooo ! My church would FLIPPP if we sung this lol
COGIC aren't always down for this I grew up in RCCG and they do let a few things slode my current church isn't affiliated to my knowledge and they'd 100% be down lol
it doesnt matter what kind of music/ if the Lord is in it/ Then you can use it / some like it fast/ some like it slow/ Praise should be your aim so let it flow!
You mean hip hop cause christianity has never had music part from the devil's music appearing when they enslaving the African people. All the music was created by the African indigenous Americans to express their pain and suffering not cause the freaking church. Pick up a history book and read about your christianity and church.
This is such an awesome Gospel mashup! The Mighty O'Jays and Montell Jordan's beautiful old school harmonies, bringin' the Holy Ghost! Then Lil Zane and T-Bone spittin' awesome, Christian rap with that funky, Hip Hop groove! "AMEN!"
Dude that started dancing at 1:36 will forever have me WEAK! He was going tf in!! Especially @ 3:17. That's me & my brother favorite part lmaooo 😂💀 Funny asf
This here is a clasic. I love how Eddie let the groove sneak up on him. Montells'tenor pipes slay and the white dude and Zane flow with the rap lyrics.

Hard times got me feelin' daddy never did a thang I'm God's chosen he put me in a Rolls and Keeps my wrists frozen, never brown nosin' Like an explosion, I cause a commotion Spit the truth like a prophet, I talk to the ocean People fear what they can't understand I thank God that I can, I stay focused keepin' him in my plan Never losin' my faith, haters gonna try to degrade Gotta be in my state of mind or relate Gotta know this is the end and ain't no time to waste Time to face your fate and I pray you don't end up in a lake Do whatever it takes, so many mistakes we made But we gon' all get it right when we down by the riverside [Hook: Montell Jordan & T-Bone] Going down (We going down to the river, take it to the river) Going down, baby (Yo, down to the river, take it to the river) Going dow-ow-ow-own Going down, baby (We going down to the river) [T-Bone] I'm gonna lay down... All of my Glocks and automatics I'm charismatic like crack addicts Ya wreak havoc like road ragers in bad traffic It gets drastic but he's fantastic in attracting No more packin', now we're fastin' [?] passion How can I get this life everlastin' Sick of blastin' and dashin' Flashin' like Charles Manson He payed the ransom Now I'm glory, holler, dancin' I'm flippin' and rippin' and Comin' with lyrical styles y'all never heard Tryna reach them partners that be on them covers flippin' birds Forget the English spit rhymes para mi gente Buster and Javanni bringin' beats like Tito Puente Salsa, merengue, ritmos calientes Azuca sabroso para ti y para mi Headin' down to the riverside so I can let the old man die When I come out of the water a new man finna come alive Revived with the Holy Ghost with tears in my eyes
Looove Walter Williams' voice! Love the way he sings the intro in this song. Love the Lil Zane and T Bone rap duet too. This song is just pure gold. This whole soundtrack is one of my favorites of all time.
Walter's intro is my fav... I'm a musician. A true performer ... I know he felt that...I don't think he planned to sound that amazing... It's called the Holy Spirit.
When lil Zane said 🎤 "I used to be a thug, sold drugs, might assault ya Stepped up in the church, got converted at the altar" It hit hard then and still hard now 🙏🏾
The power to changes thugs, criminals, tax collectors, murders, whores and whore mongers..... Jesus' power is about transforming us. We don't have to be conformed to the world.
God inhabits the praises of his people it doesn't matter the genre it doesn't matter. He desires the praises of his people and this piece right here went to the heavens and poured down to earth over again and again and again
